    摘要: A non-mechanical-interfacing electronic switch or a mechanical-interfacing electronic switch are controlled to modulate between an active state and an inactive state based on electronic action. The switch includes an aperture defining an opening in a housing, and the opening defines an insertion path. A transmitter transmits a signal to a receiver along a signal path. To control the non-mechanical-interfacing electronic switch, a mechanical lockout device having a protrusion is inserted through the opening of the aperture along the insertion path. To control the mechanical-interfacing electronic switch, a mechanical control part have a protrusion is moveable to interrupt the signal. Methods of locking the non-mechanical-interfacing electronic switch with the mechanical lockout device as well as methods of locking the mechanical control part of the mechanical interfacing electronic switch with the mechanical lockout device are also provided.

    摘要: An electrical circuit protection device a processor-based controller configured to operate at least one solid state switching element in a manner responsive to a variety of different time-current conditions to protect a plurality of different electrical loads. A field deployable adaptor device is configured to communicate with the controller. The controller is configured with at least one pre-preprogrammed control algorithm or at least one selected setting for a control algorithm executable by the controller. At least one pre-preprogrammed control algorithm or at least one selected setting are predetermined by a manufacturer of the circuit protector device.

    摘要: An electrical conductor for use in a power distribution assembly includes a main conductor portion including electrically conductive material. The main conductor portion extends along an axis. A plurality of flexible branch members include electrically conductive material. The flexible branch members extend laterally from the main conductor portion. Each flexible branch member is selectively bendable and configured for electrical connection to an electrical switching apparatus.
